Publisher's Synopsis
Love for One's Country is Part of Faith explores the deep connection between religious belief and patriotism across Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Far from blind loyalty or nationalism, this book presents patriotism as a sacred responsibility rooted in justice, compassion, and service.
Through simple yet powerful reflections, the book explores key topics such as the ethical boundaries of patriotism, the lives of prophets and heroes who balanced faith and duty, the dangers of extremism, and how believers can build just and inclusive societies. From voting and volunteering to speaking truth to power, faith communities are called to actively shape the moral and civic fabric of their nations. Drawing from scripture, history, and modern examples, this book is a timely call to believers of all backgrounds: to love your country is not only a matter of pride - it is a matter of faith. Whether you're a community leader, student, teacher, or simply someone trying to understand your role as a citizen of both a nation and the world, this book will guide you to see that building a better country begins with values that come from the heart of faith.
